How can I cut and paste from xterm _into_ another program ?

Hi, I am using a very vanilla XFree86 installation on fbsd 5.3. I am using ratpoison as my window manager. If I highlight text in an xterm, it is immediately in my buffer, and I can paste it into that xterm, or any other xterm. Further, if I copy text in my web browser, I can paste it into all
